Irrational because the number never terminates (stops)

Answer:

This is an irrational number.

Explanation:

If you see the decimal, it has the values of 1 and 0, but are not constant.

If it were to be 0.010101010... it would be rational.

But this decimal does not look like that, so its irrational.

Hope this helps.
